I would veg them for another 10 days or so, then flip to 12/12.

Your plants are mature enough to flip as soon as they are showing their sex, technically. Whether that is the frame above the soil you desire or the root structure beneath you are happy with, that is the question. I see some training going on. I'd personally wait for the plant to face the lights from the last round of training before flipping with the understanding that your plant's frame is going to drastically change in the three weeks following the flip.

Maturity happens around week 8 to 10. The plant will start producing stray pistils at the nodes, plus the growth will start looking different.

I wouldn't wait much longer. Growth is exponential up to a point that you are far from currently. It only gets faster with time... 4 plants in a 3x3... maybe 21-28 days tops are necessary. shoot for 450g total, that's 112.5g each.. 3-4 weeks still sounds good. YMMV on growth rate, adjust as needed. Heavy yielding genetics will do better ethan 50g/sq ft. when it fills about 1/2 of the area, you are good to go. 4.5 sq ft give or take.. takes a little imgination.. if they are roughyl 1x1 you are nearly there. If you flip without overgrowing, you'll eliminate a lot of wasted time and electricity while pruning off less plant over time. If any plant is not growing at a similar rate, may need to compensate a bit or allow a little more vege time etc... do what you have to do. As far as minimum time to flip? similar to autoflowers 2+ weeks. I'd wager there is genetic variety for any 1 plant just as some plants only need 10 hours of darkness to flip to flower and others need more. I've never done less than 4 weeks, and i've never seen any correlation to better or worse results due to length of vege. At worst it just sits in 12/12 until it is biologically capable of going into flower.

Hi in der Regel machen es viele zwischen der 4 und 6 Wochen der vegetativen Phase. Manche lassen sie etwas länger wachsen bis sie das erreicht haben was sie wollten. Ich denke das du nach 6 Wochen Wechselm kannst wenn du dein Training beendet hast. Dann geht's sie ja nochmal in die stretching Phase und legt ordentlich an Volumen zu. Und danach gibt es Buds Buds Buds :) hoffe das hilft dir und viel erfolg mit dem grow
